To ensure you receive all course emails and do not miss critical information, please make sure to whitelist emails from EVERFI. To whitelist means to approve an email address in your email account. When you approve email addresses, your email account then knows not to block them. This prevents emails going into your spam or junk folder.

  • Note: If you find an email in your spam/junk folder and are given the option to mark the email “This is not spam” please click this option.

How to whitelist an email will vary depending on what web service you use for email. Below are detailed steps on how to whitelist an email for a Google email account using the Google Chrome browser. This requires Google administrator privileges.
